[Elecraft] Sick K-1

Anybody out there who wants to tackle a repair on k-1. It has very weak audio. The receiver seems to align, I can hear stns, relays click, filters wrk, LED's light properly, the display functions. trouble shooting is not my bag. No test equipment at all but a DMM. I just got back into ham radio

[Elecraft] K2 and KPA 100- How Is Hi Current Generated

Hi All, I've just spent the day fine tuning my KPA100 - measuring the output power on each band and trying to improve it. Initially I was getting a HI Current warning on each of the bands from 160 through to 40 (all into a dummy load), but not on the rest. In all cases the maximum power I could

Must be the new math - 361 - 354 = 100. Grin! Or have I managed to miss something? Senioritis...:-) On a lighter note, I am building K2 number 4996...The owner and I were both hoping it would be number 5000, but he's glad that it was not number 4999... Jerry, wa2dkg

RE: [Elecraft] K2 and KPA 100- How Is Hi Current Generated

Mike, How are you measuring power out? and how good is your dummy load? (check it with your antenna analyzer) - that will get the first things out of the way for us. The Hi-Cur indication is coming from the base K2 and not the KPA100 - it indicates that the base K2 has to drive the KPA100 too

Re: [Elecraft] kpa 100 PA hot ??? no power out

Hi Bill, Check the value in the menu item CAL tPA, I'll bet it says 256. There seems to be a mysterious set of circumstances that causes this value to be set to the maximum value. I've had this occur on several occasions and the solution is to reset the CAL tPA value. 73 and good luck, Doug,

RE: [Elecraft] kpa 100 PA hot ??? no power out

Bill, Check the menu entry for CAL tPA - it should be set to the same temperature as the transistor cases in degrees C. If you let things cool down to ambient (long enough so everything is at the same temperature, you can set it properly. I really don't know what is going on here because I have

[Elecraft] KX1 did good at OPARC

HI Chuck, I was in North Florida this week-end and WELL, I now know its something I am doing wrong and not the KX1. I took the KX1 to a OPARC meeting contest head quarters and asked one of the operators named Jim to check it out for me. He hooked into his antenna used for the contest and in

Re: [Elecraft] KX1 did good at OPARC

Michael, do not despair. What you are experiencing is common enough, and made worse no doubt by the terrible band conditions we are currently suffering. I offer some suggestions below, and I am confident others on the list will have better ones to offer. mc wrote: HI

RE: [Elecraft] Sick K-1

The audio stage in the K1 is pretty simple and not much can go wrong. Assuming it's getting sufficient drive (no way to really check with just a DMM I don't think), it should work. I would start with the classics: 1. Check ALL your solder joints. Don't just look at them, reheat them. Don't add

[Elecraft] Question on LCD backlight assembly

On page 26 of the assembly manual, the 6th step down, it says do not remove the backing from either side of the diffuser, I assume that means to leave the paper backing on that has the writing on it? Also, I don't thing there is a protective film on the back of the LCD, I do not see any faint

RE: [Elecraft] Question on LCD backlight assembly

Tim, If you see no diagonal lines - then remove NOTHING. Yes there is a film on both sides of the diffuser, and that is a benefit. If the rear side has the diagonal lines, then that film should be removed because the stripes show through. There is no protective film on the back side of the LCD
